Meet the team of Pretty River Mobile

Dr. Allison Ashleigh started practicing small animal medicine in 2006 after her graduation from the Ontario Veterinary College.  Prior to veterinary school, Dr. Ashleigh received her Bachelor of Science from the University of Guelph. 

After her graduation, Dr. Ashleigh worked in local companion animal hospitals and developed a passion for internal medicine, pain management and geriatric care.  In 2018, she became a Certified Hospice and Palliative Care Veterinarian (CHPV), through the International Association for Animal Hospice and Palliative Care (IAAHPC), becoming one of the first Veterinarians to lead this initiative in the Georgian Bay area.  Dr. Ashleigh is also a certified Fear Free Professional and is committed to a career of lifelong learning.

Dr. Ashleigh is excited to pursue her dream of owning and operating a house call practice.  She shares her love of the human-animal bond with her clients and strives to strengthen that bond by keeping pets happy and healthy throughout all stages of their lives. 

Originally from Newmarket, Dr. Ashleigh has settled in Collingwood with her husband, 2 children and their rescued cats, Rona and Jinx.  In her spare time, she loves to be outdoors enjoying all the benefits of living in the Georgian Bay area with her family.

Growing up, Kathleen always knew she wanted to follow a career path with animals and started working in the Veterinary field at 13 years of age.  She has had the privilege of working in many different types of practices, including: emergency medicine, general practice and both large and small animal mobile.

 Kathleen graduated from college with a diploma in Agriculture, with a specialty in Equine Technology.  Her career has led her down various paths and enabled her to network with countless people in the industry.  These relationships and the invaluable experience she has garnered through the years have enabled her to work at the top of her profession, as she continues to do what she loves to do every day.

Kathleen and her husband have 3 children and live in Clearview Township. They share their small hobby farm with 2 wire hair Jack Russels (Oliver and Sargent), two cats (Alistair and Kibbles), two ducks (Doofenschmirtz and Mrs. Puddleduck), and a Lop ear bunny named Theodore; all of which are foundlings for one reason or another.  The farm is also home to an Appaloosa named Ceilidh and several chickens who entertain with their antics everyday!

Kathleen is excited for the opportunity to work with Dr. Ashleigh for a second time in her career, this time at Pretty River Mobile Veterinary Services, and join her in this new adventure.  She looks forward to meeting all of you and your furry family members, working along with the PRMVS team and doing all she can to keep your pets happy and healthy!

Erin was born and raised in Duntroon where she lived with her mom, dad and 3 siblings. Even as a very young girl, Erin knew she wanted to work with animals and so after graduating from Collingwood Collegiate, she enrolled in Georgian College’s Veterinary Technician program. She graduated with Honours in 2012 and became Registered in early 2013, the same year she moved to Collingwood to begin her career.

Erin has spent the past 9 years working at a local clinic where she continues to grow professionally and build valuable relationships with both the clients she meets, as well as their beloved pets.

Erin shares her home with her partner, Zakk, their 2 cats: Butters and Token, and Clyde, their chocolate lab. In her spare time, Erin enjoys hiking with Clyde and spending her evenings playing board and card games with her friends. Erin has worked closely with Dr. Ashleigh in a clinic setting for the past 9 years and is extremely excited to join the Pretty River Mobile Veterinary Team, looking forward to many on-the-road adventures.
